Experience Summary
Reading Comprehension, Floortime, Applied Behavior Analysis, Relationship Development Intervention are my areas of experience. Since my fourteen-year-old son was diagnosed with Autism, at the age of eighteen months, I have provided therapy in our home and in camp settings under the supervision of Ph.D. and masters level therapist. To meet my son's individual needs I have created therapies combining those listed above. My son is high functioning. He’s now fully included in his middle school where he’s an all “A” student. More importantly he enjoys a close group of friends.
I enjoy tutoring children in reading. Under the direction of several speech language pathologists I have taught my son reading comprehension skills. I also enjoyed managing and participating in his elementary school’s volunteer reading program.
Teaching Style
Motivation is the key to learning. I first look for what motivates students and work with him or her toward that end.
My Hobbies
Reading, biking, and swimming
